With over 170 locations throughout the UK, the new 6,000 sq ft Kids Planet nursery facility boasts numerous features, tailored to foster a nurturing environment for young learners. 

The development comprises a 21-space car park and landscaped gardens as well as housing a sensory room designed to stimulate learning and development.

The addition of 109 nursery places is expected to generate 20 to 30 new jobs, providing a boost to the local economy.
